They were late, and as they approached the old gates Catherine gave the key to Mabel, who hastened to fit it into the lock of the side gate. To her surprise it opened at a touch. "Kate!" exclaimed the young girl, "Tester has been very careless; he has never closed the side gate." "I will call him up and speak to him now," said Catherine, who had a certain touch of her mother's imperious nature.
"Well, yes; that is, I know old Squire George Hale by sight, and I met his daughter once in a sort of social way like, at Mrs. Blennerhassett's. The Hales is a fine family, regular high posts with a silk tester; they're upper-crust Boston quality. George hasn't lived here long, only about a year, and I've been away up on Yok River, at brother Virgil's, most of the time for the last five year.
It is because this history of Sir Ambrose Tester and Lady Vandeleur struck me, when you asked me about the relations of the parties, as having that kind of progression, that when I was on the point of responding, I checked myself, thinking it a pity to tell you a little when I might tell you all. I scarcely know what made you ask, inasmuch as I had said nothing to excite your curiosity.
Now Sir Condy challenged the gauger, who seemed to think little of the horn, to swallow the contents, and had it filled to the brim with punch; and the gauger said it was what he could not do for nothing, but he'd hold Sir Condy a hundred guineas he'd do it. "Done," says my master; "I'll lay you a hundred golden guineas to a tester you don't."
The tester will do well during the last hour of this trial run to station his recorders at their several posts and, for a short time at least, to have a complete set of readings taken at the correct test intervals. This more particularly applies to the electrical water, superheat and vacuum readings.
"I shall pay off his debts, first of all." "And then?" "Take him away with me." "When?" "To-morrow, if possible the sooner the better." "And give up the race, Bev?" "Yes," said Barnabas, sighing, "even that if need be." Here the Viscount lay back among his pillows and stared up at the tester of the bed, and his gaze was still directed thitherwards when he spoke: "And you would do all this "
Having convinced himself of the satisfactory conduct of the condenser under the foregoing simple preparatory water tests, the tester may safely pass to considerations of vacuum.
"Now I'll tell you what my gossip the Churl of the Townland of Mischance does: he makes a bargain with the youth that goes into his service, telling him he will give him a guinea, a groat and a tester for his three months' service. And he tells the youth that if he says he is sorry for the bargain he must lose his wages and part with a strip of his skin, an inch wide.
The classical orders were used, touched with the spirit of the time, and the fluted columns rose from acanthus leaves set in an urn supported on lion's feet. The tester and cornice gave scope for carving and the panels of the tester usually had the lovely scrolls so characteristic of the period. The headboard was often carved with a coat-of-arms and the curtains hung from inside the cornice.
Betteridge went in search of Tester and Gordon. "Come up to my study and read a play Ferrers has got hold of for the Stoics. It's glorious stuff." "All right," said Gordon. "I will go and fetch Rudd." "For God's sake, don't bring that outsider." "Oh, hell, why not? He is quite respectable; and, after all, he is one of the best of our regular readers." "All right then: fetch him along."
